'It's like going back to the 90s and the Keegan days,' one Newcastle fan says after the Magpies 6-1 thrashing of Tottenham in the latest installment of their Amazon Prime documentary.
The match, which provides the climax to the third episode of 'We Are Newcastle United', effectively confirmed the club's return to the Champions League after brushing aside their nearest challengers.
Newcastle co-owner Mehrdad Ghodoussi also points to the other significance of the match, noting their previous encounter with the North London club had been the first under their ownership, with Spurs running out 3-2 winners on that occasion.
Ghodoussi's comment illustrates the transformation since the new ownership arrived at the club, from relegation strugglers to the cusp of the Champions League.
The rapid overhauling of the club's fortunes under the Saudi-led ownership are reflected by board meeting, where chief executive Darren Eales comments on the potential challenge that awaits should a top-four finish be achieved.
'This season we haven't had to play in Europe, we have been able to focus on Premier League games,' Eales says.
'In Europe we are going to have very challenging games, as well as the Premier League.
'I'd say that the non-Big Six teams that have broken into the top four, they usually drop off next year because they are stretched thin.'
Eales statement may serve as something of a reality check, perhaps a nod to its intended audience of Newcastle fans. His comments may provide some expectation management for Newcastle this season, with the episode released just two weeks into the season and with the end of the transfer window days away.
Similarly, Amanda Staveley declares 'every single pound we earn this season will be critical, every deal we can close off will be critical. Even if we hit the Champions League, there will still be limitations'.
The episode's message may be one of patience for the Newcastle supporters for the upcoming campaign, when Eddie Howe's squad will have to juggle Premier League and Champions League commitments.
Newcastle's board are also heard discussing how improvements can be made on an infrastructure level, with the redevelopment work on the club's training ground explored later in the episode.
'At board level we looked at infrastructure and said we should make it at par with the best sporting facilities in football and any other sport, says club chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan. 'That is why we had to change the training facilities.'
On the pitch matters, show a brief insight into the Newcastle dressing room with club captain Kieran Trippier and Howe's assistant Jason Tindall giving vocal messages at half-time during their 2-0 win over Manchester United.
Callum Wilson, a goalscorer in the victory, is also shown being applauded by his team-mates post match after ending a barren run in front of goal.
The striker carries much of the episode, opening up on his upbringing and brief time in the care system as a child. On a visit back to his old school, Wilson's PE teacher admits he had concerns over the road he could go down.
Wilson's admissions over 'playing angry' as a substitute and facing the internal combination of Alexander Isak and latter their combination as a duo provide interesting glimpses into the life of a top flight star.
If there was any doubt over the target audience, Howe's final message of the episode is instructive.
'To know the fans are with you when you are on the pitch in a difficult environment, it gives you real strength,' the Newcastle boss says.
'It says we love what you represent.
'I think from my side as a manager, it says we have a good connection, the players are loved.
'For us when we are looking at the Champions League, without that support we are half as powerful.'
We Are Newcastle United launched on Prime Video with the first episode on Friday August 11, followed by new episodes every Friday through to September 1.
